Congratulations Gumby. It's a big move, but if you feel a little down, having a red and a shed and all these lunatics around should do the job.

Thank you, good timing.
Good come back. :D
Now where were we?
And she's buying a stairway to heaven
There's a sign on the wall but she wants to be sure
And you know sometimes words have two meanings
In the tree by the brook there's a songbird who sings
I know just how you feel done a very similar thing recently don't depair if you are anything like me you will be more busy now than when you were runing things
Gumbles old son, well done!
I did the same starting about five years ago, and got a job! Sold the last of our businesses about 18 months ago, but it's just bloody marvellous. (After you get over the shock and emotion and all that stuff).
My missus couldn't believe it, I was offered a consulting job so I'd get on the train and go to town and come home with money. We wondered how long that lark had been going on.
I still get itchy feet occasionally, but really, working for someone else is a splendid way of filling in a few terribly enjoyable years! (and no bad debts!)
Congratulations anyway!
Cheers,
P
:D :D
Gee Gumby - must be very strange for you! Can recall when I left my very secure job with the health department about 12 years ago after working for them in one capacity or another all my working life. Felt totally empty and scared stupid and wondering how the hell I was going to raise a dollar. After 3 months of doing SFA except loafing around, started doing for others what I had always done for myself - paving, painting, building gardens, etc. Never looked back, never had a day when there wasn;t work to go to, always had the choice of will I or won;t I work today.
I really hope that the next stage in your life is exciting and fulfilling and maybe completely different to the last one. And that you enjoy it all, once the shock has gone and you have a few ideas about which direction you are going. I bet you already have a 'feel' for what comes next, just let it surface and follow it.
Good luck!
Jeff (no apologies for the deep and meaningfuls either, I reckon this is a pretty important event in a bloke's life!)
